RWS: a Picture a Day - 2008

Note: At the end of packing up the family farm, we took a trip for two days to the Oregon Coast. And stayed in this spectacularly wonderful hotel room complete with a fireplace and a view of the ocean. My mom’s friend runs a nursery, so she supplied us with fresh berries (many of which we picked ourselves) before we drove out there. What could be better? Fireplace, fresh berries from a friend, sitting in a cozy room, reading a book, while listening to the ocean that you can see right outside your window….
Note2: Ignore the sippy cup. Reality always seems to intrude upon fantasy.

  1. Okay…that’s hilarious, but SO true! We can never really escape can we! I love that shot - it’s so cozy - makes you wish you were there (even with the sippy cup).

  2. How relaxing. I didn’t even notice the sippy cup until you mentioned it. Love how you worked with the light in this.

  3. Sippy cup? What sippy cup?!?! I see a warm, sweet cup of coffee right there. :) I fell in love with a little town on the Oregon/Washington border a few years ago… BEAUTIFUL!
